    BLAZING LAZERS / GUNHEAD is a vertical shmup STG by Hudson and NEC for the PC Engine from 1989. The actual developer, under contract, is Compile and gameplay is reminiscent of Zanac and Aleste. The game is a tie-in with Japanese mecha film Gunhed from the same year.

    GUNHEAD is a great roguelike FPS that feels fantastic once you get the hang of all the mechanics. And you will be able to enjoy it on the Steam Deck! A copy was provided by Alientrap for review! steamdeckhq.com/game-reviews...

    my favorite demos from the Steam Next Fest were Enshrouded (a little more focused Valheim-like), GUNHEAD (3D sequel to CRYPTARK, a favorite hidden gem of mine), and Jusant, the climbing game with awesome physics and grapple puzzles... makes Uncharted feel even more on rails

    I really enjoyed Cryptark and honestly most of Alien Trap's other content, so I really do suggest trying the Gunhead demo and seeing what you think of it. I even tried Alien Trap' s original game, Capsized, when it came out, and that was fun if simple.

    I can no longer recall who started it, but 15+ years ago at Mythic, someone decided it would be a fun design challenge for folks to pitch ideas for a game we would never actually make, based on a random title - GUNHEAD. The whole thing derailed when we learned that "Gunhed" already existed.
